Planned Purlhood Dishcloths

Yarn: Lily Sugar N' Cream Cotton, assorted colors. Less than one 2 oz. ball for each cloth.

Size 7 red heart kids plastic needles
Pattern: free knitting pattern Planned Purlhood Dishcloth
Started: May 3, 2007

This pattern is so quick and easy. I love how each cloth turns out completely different, just based on what color you choose to do the reverse stitch with. I want to knit more of them, and I probably will! :)
